>>4475643,
>>4475643why not just 24-70mm (aps-c cropping for the 85mm shots)? aperture shouldn't be a big problem in such simple backgrounds
>>4475802not even him but this is such a notphotog gearfag take>on paper bro, the zoom is...zooms are worse to handle, intimidate clients, and mess with color/contrast rendering in a way that increases editing workload and can even make it difficult to impossible to make the edit look natural because all glass to air surfaces reflect at least some light, usually just a few colors due to the coating ($1500+ pro zooms dont suffer from this as much, but sigma/tamron zooms and the v1 sony GM zooms DO.)primes also have consistent rendering. every prime of the same grade is going to have similar field curvature and sharpness falloff maintaining a consistent "real camera" look. cropping 70->85 is going to fuck fine consistency by magnifying aliasing and cutting out sharpness falloff.all of the primes OP is using are relatively light and medium/small sized and all three have a consistent more vintage color reproduction than a modern 24-70, which would be 4x the size and price of the largest prime, have uneven rendering across the focal range, and have flat, neutral modern sony lens color rendering.notice OPs skin tones are good. they are not green. lens affects color rendition, camera body does not, and many complaints regarding sony colors are due to the coating G and GM series lenses get which produces more scientifically accurate but less pleasing color than older school coatings like zeiss T* and the standard sony/minolta coating of the old primes. every single person involved in cinematography knows this but very few photographers do. it's why we all film on vintage prime sets and not technically ideal nikkor 25-70 f2.8 IIs.for art, studio, and editorial photography a zoom is something to sit on a shelf. they are ideal for wedding, sports, and wildlife photography where getting the shot matters 10000x more than making the shot.
>>4475806Op here. You articulated something that I never thought about but always subconsciously felt. I appreciate it.I guess also just to add, it just feels more consistent and I’ll accidentally do something stupid like tilt the zoom ring to 84mm by accident. I’m a bit OCD where if I do that I feel like I ruined it.

Holy neurosis Batman.
>>4475643A 50? Muhnigga I got a jerb shooting state politicos, and they handed me a 300mm, not bc I needed the tele, but bc everyone likes how they look flattened the fuck out, and that’s the only reason the uptight old pasty gop pricks would allow you in. On the other hand, maybe your puffed up swol freaks want the building distortion to more accentuate their body dysmorphia and all their gender-affirming gainz.
>>4475908He ain’t but, but I’m your fuckin huckleberry you little turd, the fuck you gonna do about it ya spineless internet loser?
>>4475920>body dysmorphia and all their gender-affirming gainzI love pro-obesity chaners.
>>4475908All the good photographers are Jews retard. Helmut Newton, Weegee, Richard Avedon, Saul Leiter (one of the few thoughtful and intentional street photographers)… Ansel adams wasnt, but he owes his career to a jewhttps://jweekly.com/2012/06/22/then-and-now-rabbis-son-saw-early-greatness-in-ansel-adams/Imagine being antisemitic in a jewish hobbyIf you’re going to be an antisemite try a nazi hobby like reading, farming or guns
